some questions on the meaning/context of translatable terms:
* NegBin 2

(what's with the numbering; and should they be translated at all?)
While the doc for this remains as yet unwritten, try
http://elsa.berkeley.edu/wp/tsp_ref/negbin.pdf for models "1" and
"2". I'd say there's a reasonable case for leaving these
untranslated.
* NBER recessions
(why is this in the .po files? NBER hardcoded into gretl?)
The NBER recession dates are available for adding to time series
graphs; see
http://lists.wfu.edu/pipermail/gretl-devel/2010-March/002627.html
* Overdispersion test
(what are the test details, where do I find it in the menus?)
It's not in the menus, the test is printed by default. To see the
context run, e.g., greene19_3.inp. The test that we do appears on
page 477 of Deavidson and MacKinnon, Econometric Theory and
Methods.
